From Course to Course through Sörenberg’s Winter Wonderland

A culinary winter hike through the moorland of Sörenberg: from an aperitif at Rossweid via Rischli to dessert in the village.

The gondola climbs to Rossweid, where the winter hike begins at its highest point, just under 1,500 m. An aperitif, the first course of the culinary three-course menu, awaits at the Rossweidbar. The route then leads through the snow-covered moorland with very little ascent. Open expanses and quiet stretches of forest characterise the trail to the Berggasthaus Salwideli. The focus along the way is on the moorland habitats and the survival strategies of their inhabitants.

From Salwideli, the route continues downhill, partly along the road. After around seven kilometres, it reaches Rischli, the stop for the main course. The route then descends to about 1,100 m before climbing gently again on the final section.

After a little over two hours, the first houses of Sörenberg come into view. The Sörenberg, Post bus stop is just under 200 metres from the destination. Dessert rounds off the experience at Restaurant Bäckerstube, where the roughly nine-kilometre winter hike ends.
